I was kind of curious as to why Kit got bumped up as well. Thats interesting about Obi-Wan.

I totally stumbled upon the info too. Apparently the word had spread already by the time I read it on Scum. It's fine by me if it means his robes won't be so white like they appear in the pics. I hope I can get Kit at a good price.

Oh you're totally right that anything is possible and last year's Indians nearly proved that, but it requires the Twins to stay hot and one of 2 teams to basically fall on their ass so the odds are against the Twinkies. Getting a big bat will help, assuming a deal is out there.

I'm just amazed out how wide open the field is this year because there is no 1 dominant team. It's anyone's trophy at this point.

Do you think they will mail out the orders for Vader/Anakin before the convention or wait until afterwards? I am assuming afterwards but it would be sweet to have it before then.

I've gotta think it would be afterwards. It would suck for those of us who are going to have people who aren't attending have the satisfaction of owning it first. Kinda takes some of the luster off of it ya know?

I figured I would get Aragorn or Obi-Wan before Kit since Obi-Wan went up for sale on the 6th and Aragorn on the 13th (Kit wasn't until the 20th). No big deal really, my credit card has already been slammed more than Paris Hilton with my daughters wedding and all but still, it would have been nice to have all three come sometime in July .

Actually Beth I read on Scum that they pushed Obi-Wan back because they wanted to get the color right on the outfit (something along those lines) so Kit got bumped ahead of him.

The Twinkies got themselves in an early hole and the Tigers and Sox were playing great from the start so it's gonna take a serious run to get into 1st place. I don't see it happening. They have to hope one of those 2 teams cools off big time and aim for the wild card.
